It's a Sign

Adam has officially left the building (aka, Iraq), and has been backlogged in Kuwait for an undetermined time. He has limited internet access, so we take our few moments of contact when we can get them.

Today, while on Facebook chat, he asked me "What's our little black cat's name again?". This was particularly ironic that he asked, because today is the one-year anniversary of our acquiring her. I couldn't believe he'd forgotten her name. I know the cats don't mean the same thing to us as the dogs did, but still...

When I finally helped him get to Holiday with a series of clues, he surmised, "I'm getting old and I need to get outta here." I agreed, at least with the latter part of that statement.

So folks, if your loved one suddenly forgets a family pet's name, it's a sure-fire sign they need to get the hell outta Kuwait.

Poor cats! That's the same way I feel about our animals. Shhh don't tell them! And yes, it sounds like a sign to me :)
